>> not quite, gwen. when i've asked people over the last day about the tea party in iowa, the uniform answer is that it is not like it is in other states. here the religious conservatives have dominated the republican party, but there is not the kind of active or energetic kind of tea party movement. there are some tea party people here in the state but i don't think it's the same as we've seen in a number of the other states around the country. gwen: dan balz, i get the feeling you'll be back and forth in iowa more than once. she's not the first, she won't be the last candidate and we'll be checking in with you from time to time. >> thanks, gwen. gwen: ok, here's what puzzles me about all of this. we read the polls, we all do. it is clear that sarah palin, when her name is put out there, is just not that popular in the public at large. what is it about her or is it something about her that's driving this? >> well, i think you're exactly right about the polls. cbs did a poll this week, if you look inside
